text: Wine Giant Frank Indelicato Passes Delicato Family Vineyards mourns the loss of second generation family member Frank Indelicato, Senior. Published on: Aug 1, 2012 Tweet Post to Your Wall. Email Story RSS Permalink Print Frank Indelicato, Sr. beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and employer passed away on Sunday, July 22 in Stockton, Calif.at the age of 87. Frank Indelicato, Sr. along with his brothers Anthony and Vincent, transformed a small vineyard planted in 1924 by their father Gaspare and Uncle Sebastiano Luppino, into one of the most successful wine companies in California. In 1988, the brothers purchased the largest contiguous vineyard property in the United States, San Bernabe Vineyard, located in Monterey County. Over the next two decades, the three worked tirelessly to improve the quality of grapes grown at San Bernabe, eventually replanting the original vineyard using grape clones, root stocks and varietals better suited to Monterey's cool climate. In addition to San Bernabe Vineyard, the brothers developed Clay Station Vineyard in the foothills northeast of Lodi. Frank Indelicato, Sr. PRNewsFoto/Delicato Family Vineyards photo The vision of Frank, Sr., Anthony and Vincent Indelicato reached beyond the vineyards into the wine cellar. The three greatly expanded the family winery in Manteca, installing the latest winemaking technologies and building an additional winery at San Bernabe. These actions fostered the creation of wine brands that were successfully distributed in the US as well as many international markets. Frank Indelicato, Sr. was born on April 6, 1925 in French Camp, Calif. He spent his childhood working with his father and brothers in Delicato's Manteca cellars and vineyards. He attended the University of California at Berkeley and graduated in 1947 with a Bachelors of Science degree. Indelicato, Sr. then returned to the family business where he worked for over six decades. Over the course of his 65 years with Delicato Family Vineyards, he worked nearly every position from vineyard manager to winemaker to accountant all the while working hand in hand with his brothers.

Dozens of rogue self-signed SSL certificates used to impersonate high-profile sites
Dozens of self-signed SSL certificates created to impersonate banking, e-commerce and social networking websites have been found on the Web. The certificates don't pose a big threat to browser users, but could be used to launch man-in-the-middle attacks against users of many mobile apps, according to researchers from Internet services firm Netcraft who found the certificates.

Five secrets your cloud provider won?t tell you about multi-tenancy (and how to overcome them)

Self-signed SSL certificates can be secure

Several hundred unionized teachers and their supporters rallied in Hyde Park Friday night.
They're vowing massive demonstrations of civil disobedience if the board of education goes ahead with plans to close 80 schools.
At a meeting organized by the Chicago Teachers Union, a series of speakers demanded the board of education abandon plans to close dozens of underperforming schools.
"You are not going to close any more schools in anybody's community," one of the speakers said.
Part of the proceedings involved planning for a protest parade through the Loop on March 27, about the time the board's expected to release a final list of school closings. Some are preparing for large-scale sit-ins at the targeted schools.
"Non-violent massive civil disobedience... if they go forward with this kind of a plan," said CTU Vice President Jesse Sharkey.
"I think it's a good idea. Maybe we need to do that to get Rahm's attention," said Ron Oliver, a Hyde Park resident.
"Whatever it takes, if you have to shut a school down to keep it open," said Wanda Collie, a South Side resident.
A member of the board of education insisted that only underperforming schools would be shut and that, in the long run, students would benefit.
"What makes me crazy is how many underperforming schools there are in minority areas. We need to fix that," said Andrea Zopp, Board of Education member.
"If you have to close a school for a day to keep it from closing forever, that's the kind of thing that people need to consider," Sharkey said.

Interesting story on NPR. NPR says no media outlet is mentioning the double homicide or his conviction for obstruction of justice. The whitewash is complete.
I for one, and evidently many others, will not pass judgement when we have nothing to base it on.
Here is what we appear to know for sure. 2 men died of stab wounds. Ray Lewis and some of his friends were in the vicinity. Ray Lewis pled guilty to a misdemeanor of obstruction of justice for giving police a false statement.
You say 2 men died under his watch, that is a leap of faith most people do not seem ready to make.
I think my fans, I think my city, they deserve it. They deserve that whenever this road stops, for me not just to walk away and be like, 'I'm done.' I think we all get to enjoy what Sunday will feel like knowing that this will be the last time 52 plays in a uniform in Ravens' stadium."
for some reason this part rubs me the wrong way. "The fans deserve one more chance to celebrate me."
I was glad to see a major media outlet finally cover the double homicide he was involved in. The one he never apologizes for. The one over which he apparently has no remorse.
Said Lewis: "You want to talk to me about something that happened 13 years ago right now?"
"His attitude during the deposition and everything wasn't that great," Katheryn Smith says of Lewis. "He disappointed me in the things he said. But I decided I wasn't the one (to judge). You have to leave that up to God, you know? He was there when it happened. I think they all got off fairly easy, but I don't have any hard feelings. I think he had a bad choice of friends."

DALLAS, Texas -- After an intense Republican primary that stretched over several months, Tuesday evening was the first time a Republican and Democratic nominee for Texas' open seat in the U.S. Senate sat down for a head-to-head debate.
Those hoping for fireworks at the Belo Debate hosted by WFAA in Dallas were quickly rewarded with a back-and-forth exchange over accusations by Democrat Paul Sadler that Republican Ted Cruz has been ducking debate appearances, after accusing GOP primary opponent David Dewhurst of the same thing.
"You had 38 media events in the Republican primary, what's wrong with six for the general election?" asked Sadler.
"We have agreed to this one," responded Cruz, who added after being further pushed by Sadler to commit to six debates, "I understand that you are working very hard to get free media coverage."
The tone would grow increasingly heated, with WFAA reporter and debate co-moderator Brad Watson attempting multiple times to restore order between the two candidates.
The pair expressed very different views on spending and the Bush-era tax cuts.
The debate format allowed the candidates to ask questions of one another, and both took the opportunity to do so.
"Which Texans would you raise taxes on and which Texans would you not raise taxes on?" Cruz asked after Sadler acknowledged he would support allowing at least some of the Bush tax cuts to expire.
"Would you consider it 'liberal' to say that we have to pay down the national debt?" Sadler said.
The two also sparred over the Affordable Care Act passed under President Barack Obama and referred to by some as "Obamacare," a law Sadler supports and Cruz would repeal.
"Don't give away our benefits just so you can make a political point," Sadler said. "Everything government is giving us, it must first take from us," Cruz said.
The night ended in a wild exchange in which Sadler accused Cruz of legislative inexperience and misrepresenting Sadler's political record.
Sadler told Cruz he didn't make decisions based on the fear of "some troll" running against him years later.
"I'm sorry Mr. Sadler you believe I'm a troll," Cruz said.
"I think you lie, Ted," Sadler responded.
It was an end that will no doubt provide both sides with plenty of talk about before their next encounter.

I really love hip hop. In fact, it's probably the main genre of music I listen to. There's all different types of hip hop though, right? The mainstream stuff that they play on the radio that is mainly crap. And then there's everything else.
What I want most from hip hop is for it to surprise me. I don't want to hear some basic beats, with some basic rhymes about you beating the pussy up (that is the worst hook in the history of ever)–I want something different. I want that first song, Fitta Happier by Quakers. Did you listen to that? That is a brass band with a snare drum just rolling in swag. Danny Brown is surprising on his own without music–born in Detroit with a weirdly eccentric sense of style and missing front teeth. Cadence Weapon is from Edmonton, of all places, and his new album is something new; drawing on old-old school rap and putting heavy rock outbursts in the middle of his tracks. That Trackademicks song is basically about Sperrys, which is hilarious. This is the sort of thing I like in hip hop.
I'll tell you a not-so-secret secret, my favourite hip hop group of all time is Wu-Tang Clan and the reason why is because they were (still are?) full of surprises. It was their lyrics mainly that blew my mind (with references to Socrates, Egyptian gods, and scientific discoveries listening to a Wu-Tang track can be like reading an academic poet), but even just their concept was unique and refreshing. A bunch of dudes from Staten Island getting together and thinking, "Hey, I got a great idea! Let's make a rap group based on old kung fu movies and let's maintain that theme throughout five studio albums and maybe anything else we do too." Who does that? It's why Wu-Tang is forever. And as if that wasn't surprising enough for me, GZA goes and makes an album with Neil Degrasse Tyson. About space. Obviously.
But sometimes I just look for hip hop that I want to like. For instance, recently I'm on a whole Detroit hip hop ride. (Hence the Guilty Simpson, Danny Brown, Black Milk, and Royce da 5'9″ business in this mix.) I love Detroit and I know it's always had a healthy music scene so I've been looking into it. I like that all these dudes are coming up out of Detroit and continually reminding people that that's where they're from. But it's also a strange mentality because in their music they're rapping about how shitty Detroit is. I don't blame them; it may be my favourite city but it's well shitty. I was watching a Danny Brown documentary today and the first thing he's asked as he sits between his parents on a couch in their Linwood home, "what are the positive aspects of the neighbourhood that keep you here?" and all three of them sit there in silence until they start laughing uncontrollably. Detroit just isn't a place many people want to be. But people identify with where they're from and where their family is from–that's something no one can take from you and something you can always fall back on. Detroit isn't easy, but it's a place you stay because it's a place that's yours. The rappers coming out of the city exemplify the hustling attitude of the place–you have to work at something continually if you ever want it to work. Who knew rappers could be so inspiring?
Why more people haven't promoted rappers as role models more often isn't that confusing to me; I guess the explicit language and mature themes aren't the best things to give to kids? But like, they're not rapping about guns and drugs and poverty because they sit around watching Downton Abbey and drinking white wine. Even that is something that is worth looking at, though. Rappers and their work ethic and never-ending hustling astounds me, and I know a bunch of kids who could definitely benefit from learning some of the characteristics that cities like Detroit breed in people. This might sound racist? Does it sound racist? And a bit classist? Kinda. "Oh, if only all you privileged white kids could get some of the work ethic of your underserviced friends of colour!" That brings up a whole other issue I have with listening to hip hop though. These songs are not for me, and I can't relate to any of them.
So where does my enjoyment come from? A more accurate question may be where does my entitlement to enjoyment come from? School me on this, please.
I like the music. I like the attitude of hip hop. I like the cockiness of so much of it. I like the talent. Have you ever tried to rap? I have and it's really hard and I'm absolutely terrible at it. I'm not a rap scholar or anything and haven't looked into it any more than just enjoying it, but I'm sure the research is out there that looks at the reflective nature of hip hop for generations of people growing up with no other voice available to them. But I often am like, ugh…why do so many rappers have to have a hate-on for women? Where are all the feminist rappers at? Why can't a rapper be critical AND have swag? Do you know of any rappers who can do this? Are they currently making music? Is it surprising? Let me know!
EDIT: Thanks to reader Nobby, I was pointed in the direction of El Guante, and I think this video says a lot about how I feel (and strangely, or not, echoes a lot of what I say when people tell me that because I'm a skinny, white, cisgendered woman there doesn't need to be more pictures of me naked on the internet.)

In four days, those of us with Irish heritage like me, thanks to the Lasley brood, will celebrate St. Patrick's Day. As for the Sweats, we will be remembering our friend, Andy Zagar, who died six years ago on the day we will be wearing green.
Even if your family is not Irish, plan an easy meal for your family. You don't have to do the salad or the dessert, the stew and bread would be enough.

Laurie Ann Guerrero
Mayor Julian Castro and the City of San Antonio's
Department for Culture and Creative Development
Request the pleasure of your company
at the Investiture Ceremony for the 2014-2016
San Antonio Poet Laureate
Laurie Ann Guerrero
and the reception celebrating her appointment.
Tuesday, April 1, 2014
6:30 p.m.-8:30p.m.
San Antonio City Council Chambers
114 West Commerce Street
Free and open to the public
Newly appointed Poet Laureate of San Antonio, Laurie Ann Guerrero pictured here (left to right) with Mayor Pro Tem, Councilman Cris Medina, Councilwoman Rebecca Viagran, Inaugural Poet Laureate of San Antonio, Carmen Tafolla, and Councilman Diego Bernal.
Filled with the nuanced beauty and complexity of the everyday—a pot of beans, a goat carcass, embroidered linens, a grandfather's cancer—A Tongue in the Mouth of the Dying journeys through the inherited fear of creation and destruction. Guerrero's tongue becomes a palpable border, occupying those liminal spaces that both unite and divide, inviting readers to straddle and explore that what is known and unknown: the body. Guerrero explores not just the right, but the ability to speak and fight for oneself, one's children, one's community—in poems that testify how, too often, we fail to see the power reflected in the mirror.
Available February 2013

"This is the poetry of both saints and sinners (and even murderers). The poet conjures up Pablo Neruda, Gloria Anzaldúa, Sylvia Plath, and is rooted in the best Latin American, Chicano/a, and contemporary American poetics, able to render an effective poetic version of Nepantla, the land where different traditions meet, according to Anzaldúa. These poems make the reader laugh, cry, cringe, lose one's breath, and almost one's mind, at times.... These poems restore my faith in the power of poetry." — Francisco X. Alarcón, judge
"Guerrero writes in a language of the body, visceral, almost unbearably vivid, the language of a poet who knows how to work with her hands. In an age when so many poems say nothing, these poems miss nothing ...attention must be paid to such a poet now and for years to come." — Martín Espada, author of The Trouble Ball
"Guerrero has always written pointedly with a sharp pen and a sharp knife always at the ready. In her first full-length collection, these dazzling, edgy, irascible poems lean into their sweet natural bristling air, stitching and stretching image to image. This is the singing blue glory of language at its best."
— Nikky Finney, author of Head Off & Split,
winner of The National Book Award
"In poems crafted with tremendous skill, Laurie Ann Guerrero's A Tongue in the Mouth of the Dying explores, so often, the ways in which the colonized or poor or brown have been brutalized, and their stories written by the conquerors. But the wonderful discovery one makes while reading what's often painful and heart-breaking is that Guerrero's the one telling us. In other words, the re-writing is begun. This is a powerful, necessary book."
— Ross Gay, author of Bringing the Shovel Down
"A Tongue in the Mouth of the Dying is populated by...women who defy and trouble long-held assumptions about, and expectations of, motherhood and maternal behavior: here, mothers take lovers, make war, cause damage — "make carnage of [their] own mouth[s]." And they also write daring poems that break with polite and romanticized representations of femininity, situating the woman as the source of her own volition, a daunting force to be reckoned with."
—Rigoberto Gonzalez for LA Review of Books
"..these verses of germination and carrying, of labor and production, deliver us to a place of potent ferocity, expressed in multilingual cries, embodied by the wide, red lips of earthenware vessels, and through eyes that refuse to back down."
—Diego Báez for Booklist Online
San Antonio's new poet laureate, Laurie Ann Guerrero was born and raised in the Southside of San Antonio and received the Academy of American Poets Prize, among others, at Smith College. Winner of the 2012 Andrés Montoya Poetry Prize, her first full-length collection, A Tongue in the Mouth of the Dying, selected by Francisco X. Alarcón, was released by University of Notre Dame Press in 2013. Guerrero's poetry and critical work have appeared in Huizache, Texas Monthly, Bellevue Review, Women's Studies Quarterly, Global City Review, Texas Observer, Chicana/Latina Studies, Feminist Studies and others. Guerrero holds a B.A. in English Language & Literature from Smith College and an MFA in poetry from Drew University. Guerrero's chapbook, Babies under the Skin (2008), won the Panhandler Publishing Award, chosen by Naomi Shihab Nye. A CantoMundo fellow and member of the Macondo Writers' Workshop, Guerrero's work has been highlighted in the LA Review of Books, The Poetry Foundation/Harriet Blog, and Poets & Writers Magazine in which she was named one of ten top, emerging poets in 2013. Other honors include fellowships from the Alfredo Cisneros del Moral Foundation and the Artist Foundation of San Antonio. Guerrero has served on the faculty at Palo Alto College, University of the Incarnate Word, University of Texas-El Paso, and Gemini Ink. She is a visiting writer at Our Lady of the Lake University and lives and writes in San Antonio.

Like many apartments mine boasts poorly insulated windows and baseboard electric heating. Yep, it's a keeper. With the weather being in the high My Ass is About to Fall Offs I've been scheming ingenious ways to keep the plants that are stuck enduring their fate on the cold windowsill warm and alive through these dark days.
With a little extra time and some spare wool on hand I recently crocheted some handy warmers that seem to be making a difference. The first is a cozy coaster that was ridiculously easy for a novice crocheter like me to cobble together. All I did was make your standard crocheted circle — there are lots of books and websites that show how this is done (see list below). However, for those with some basic crochet skills all it takes is to make a small circle by slip stitching a couple of chains, and then double crocheting into that circle on every round, inserting some extra double crochets here and there to keep the coaster sitting flat.
Keep crocheting new rounds until your circle is as large as your pot's saucer. You can make it a little larger so some of the design peeks over the edges or you can fancy it up with decorative edging like I did. Being the Queen of Scallops I went for the shell stitch which is as simple as double crocheting 3 to 5 times into a stitch until you've got a fan shape. Attach each fan (or scallop) to the coaster with a slip stitch and then begin double crocheting into the next stitch. You can spread them out a little bit or keep them tight like I have to make them puff out and curl. Just be sure to set a saucer underneath your plant pot to avoid turning your coaster into a wet and stinky mess.
I'll post about the other project in a few days so stayed tuned.

New cell test kits for the detection of ortho phosphate, total phosphorous and fluoride
Fluoride, ortho phosphate and total phosphorous levels are crucial parameters in determining whether water can be used in households or certain industrial processes, such as in the food industry.
Merck Millipore now offers four new pre-programmed cell test kits to determine these values reliably. Three of the kits are for the detection of ortho phosphate and total phosphorous. The fourth kit can be used to test whether the fluoride level in drinking water exceeds the crucial value of 1.5mg/l of fluoride. Software updates are also available for the Spectroquant© photometers Multy, NOVA and Pharo.
Advantages at a glance:
- Software update for Spectroquant© photometers Multy, NOVA and Pharo
- Four new pre-programmed cell test kits
- Ideal tools for analyzing water for fluoride, ortho phosphate and total phosphorous
Reliable water analyses
Spectroquant© fluoride cell test kits cover a measuring range from 0.02 to 1.8 mg/l. This makes them ideal for determining the fluoride content in drinking, mineral and percolating water, as well as sea water and wastewater after appropriate sample pre-treatment.
The Spectroquant© phosphate cell test kits cover the following measuring ranges:
• 0.05 to 5 mg/l PO4-P: Detection of ortho phosphate, for example in drinking water, river or lake water, as well as in nutrient solutions for fertilizer, soil and food samples after appropriate sample pre-treatment
• 0.5 to 25 mg/l PO4-P: Ortho phosphate detection, as in contaminated groundwater and surface water or from waste water treatment plants
• 3 to 100 mg/l PO4-P: Detection of ortho phosphate and total phosphorous levels, for example in heavily contaminated water from the chemical, pharmaceutical or textile industry, as well as from farms, waste water from the oil industry, refineries, disposal plants and recycling facilities
Spectroquant© Multy, NOVA and Pharo
The Spectroquant© Multy is a compact, cost-effective and easy to transport complete solution for photometric water analysis. The Spectroquant© NOVA model devices have a barcode reading system and recognize automatically cell sizes. Spectroquant© Pharo systems are versatile spectral photometers. They combine the advantages of a system photometer – such as test kits customized for the device – with the advantages of a spectral photometer.

A fine impression of the definitive state, from the standard book edition (apart from the deluxe book edition of 150, and the pencil-signed and numbered edition of 80). One of 5 lithographs published in Joan Miró Lithographs, Volume IV, the fourth volume of the catalogue raisonné of the artist's work in the medium of lithography. Published by Maeght Édieur, Paris; printed by Atelier Mourlot, Paris. Catalogue reference: Maeght 1260; Cramer 249 VI.Miró was born in 1893 in Catalonia, Spain. Although he traveled extensively, it was his homeland that he identified with the most. His first independent paintings executed between 1916-18 showed the impact of Cézanne, Van Gogh, Matisse and Picasso. But it was during a trip to Paris in 1919 that Miró became acquainted with the leading avant garde artists of the time. Instantly, Miró was swept up with the tide of the Surrealist movement. After the war, he dramatically experimented with bold shapes, patterns and colors, painting in intense heavy brushstrokes. He looked to primitive arts, Romanesque architecture to Gaudi creations in Barcelona. From 1961-70, termed the years of maturity, Miró refined and reduced his palette concentrating on purely the essentials: the earth, sky, sea and heavenly bodies. From the 1970's till his death in 1983, he experimented with various techniques such as splashing, trickling and dripping of paint. In his later years Miró's work was tinged with spontaneity that became his signature.
From the context of Miró's overall career, his graphic work occupies a very important position both in quantity and quality. He worked in stencils, woodcuts, lithographs and etchings.. By the 1960's he had mastered the etching process and sought new avenues of experimentation with relief prints in cement and the application of carborundum. Miró was constantly experimenting with materials, paint gestures and stains. In his last years, as a testament to his generosity, he set up a studio in Son Boter, Spain for young and aspiring artists thus continuing his legacy.
This work is part of a carefully curated selection by noted fine art expert Jennifer McCloskey, who was formerly affiliated with Doyle Gallery in New York and is now based in San Francisco. If you have questions about any of the works in this selection, please send an email to email@example.com.

I haven't got an iPhone yet (but tomorrow ), but I've already taken a look at most of the third party apps.
I think among all those applications launchers, Summerboard's scrolling feature is definitely the most sophisticated solution.
However, I've read that Summerboard uses a lot of system resources and generally slows down the iPhone...
So, what I'm asking for is an application that only enables springboard scrolling, because I don't want to customise the ui anyway.
Does such an application already exist? Would it be very hard to create?
Thanks in advance,
